ASU looks to snag players on national signing day

The shape of coach Todd Graham's first Arizona State recruiting class will continue to form Wednesday, as several recruits wait until the last minute to reveal their college choices.

Entering national signing day, ASU has 16 commitments to go with the five players who signed with the Sun Devils last month. Recruiting services Rivals and Scout.com rank the Sun Devils' class 10th in the Pac-12, just ahead of Arizona's and Washington State's.

Among those ASU still is chasing:

Defensive back Randall Goforth of Long Beach (Calif.) Poly already has committed to ASU, along with four of his teammates, but he recently took official visits to UCLA and Washington and is considering all three schools.

Receiver Darreus Rogers of Carson (Calif.) High is expected to decide between ASU and USC. A four-star prospect, Rogers committed to the Trojans on Jan. 6, 2011, but took an official visit to ASU this month and entered this week uncertain of his college choice.

According to Rivals, defensive back Laiu Moeakiola of Trinity High in Euless, Texas, recently de-committed from UCLA and is considering the Sun Devils and Baylor. He is the nation's No. 42 safety.

Defensive back Zach Hoffpauir of Peoria Centennial once was committed to California, but ASU and Stanford have captured his attention. Rivals ranks Hoffpauir as the nation's No. 29 safety.

Defensive tackle Jaxon Hood of Chandler Hamilton has committed to Boston College, but it wouldn't be a surprise if he signs with ASU.

Of the 16 expected to sign with ASU, two -- athlete D.J. Foster of Scottsdale Saguaro and tackle Evan Goodman of Lakeland, Fla. -- are four-star prospects, according to Rivals. The Sun Devils have 11 3-star prospects.

Note

ASU receiver T.J. Simpson had his request for a sixth season of eligibility denied. He tore a knee ligament during spring practice and missed last season.
